CDN nirve update

canadian version switchblade: here is an update on my bike build, yes this model is different from US version. finished the bike and went for a good ride this weekend and all good. 80cc motor stock pipe, open filter, changed to a three piece crank, ditched the 24 x 3 for a 26 x 1.95 for clearence issues and a drum front hub. front mounted tank and i ran some line through the frame tube. so far the carb works the way it is mounted. i am not a big chopper fan but this bike is too cool to pass up on adding to the collection. once you sit on the bike you will see what i mean and then to ride it is a different feel, so if you have are thinking about one go ahead. i am happy with mine. thanks to HELLBILLY for some help with mine

ok... what is holding that sprocket in place in the back....

i wonder the same thing when i saw HELLBILLY bike, it is a ghost sprocket used as a chain spreader too give some space for the motor, the chain has tension and just spins in place and will not come out. this weird but it stays in place

 

[DJEEPER]

not sure i would trust it....lol

I've put over 500 miles on both of my Switchblade choppers with the ghost sprocket and they have never came loose or off. Only way is if your axle slides forward in the dropouts or if you break a chain. If either of these occur that sprocket will only be one of your worries. Nice work, and have fun riding!!!
